WHAT TOVES WANTS

Larry Claros and others have tried to deflect the visit of John Toves by saying that if he has evidence of a crime he needs to report it to the civil authorities.

They don't get it.

John Toves never said he was coming here to report a crime or even accuse Archbishop Apuron of a crime. He said he came here to get Archbishop Apuron to take responsibility for sexually molesting his cousin.

He may also want the Archbishop to restore Fr. Paul and Msgr. James to their positions and for the Archbishop to "step down", but those are not his primary objectives.

His primary objective is, and will remain, to get Archbishop Apuron to admit to and take responsibility for the sexual molestation of his cousin.

The Archbishop simply has to meet with Mr. Toves, and he can do it outside for all to see, and say to Mr. Toves: "I did not molest your cousin." And to finally turn Mr. Toves away, the Archbishop can offer to sign an affidavit stating so.

This is what any innocent, self-respecting person would do when confronted with such an allegation. And it is especially incumbent on the Archbishop given that so many souls who are in his care are watching.

But the Archbishop has not done this. Instead he hides behind lawyers, his chancellor, his vicar general, his staff, and time. He figures all he will have to do is wait this out and the problem will go away.

Excellent post. When one studies the intention of John Toves it was really very basic and not even controversial. John did not say I am here to accuse. John did not say I am here to report a crime. John being the gentleman he is simply called for Tony Apuron to reflect on his life and amend anything in his life which is gray. Mr. Apuron should then have privately met with John and the media and relayed to the community there has been a miss communication understanding and that Mr. Apuron has never hurt a fly. Best method. Now we enter the second week of advent left wondering who is Mr. Tony Apuron?

Suggest now that every time anyone meets archbishop we all ask the same question John is asking the archbishop. should we meet Archbishop in a church, in shirley's, in chancery, in his private palace, at the gas station, in the supermarket. We drop what ever we are doing go to the archbishop and ask him, " is this true"? Archbishop must then appear on KUAM news informing the archdiocese this is not true.

TIME SINCE ARCHBISHOP APURON SAID HE WOULD FIND IT.

Archbishop Apuron, December 15, 2014.

"Rome has approved it – even the way we’re receiving Communion. That they receive the host standing and they can sit down and everybody who receives it and they eat together...Rome has given permission for that. And it’s somewhere I need to find out where exactly, but they told us that permission is given."
